Personal Statement
As a history teacher with a passion for fostering intellectual curiosity and moral integrity, I view education as a transformative journey that shapes not only minds but also hearts. Teaching at a Catholic school allows me to integrate my love for history with a commitment to nurturing faith, values, and a sense of purpose in the lives of young people.
